It feels like all that time spent hangin’ around with White Fences has rubbed off on ultra-prolific San Francisco wunderkind Ty Segall. With “The Hill”, the first single off of his 3rd album of 2012, Mr. Segall opens a hole to the past, wrenching the still breathing form of John Lennon in to the thrashy garage of San Francisco, 2012. This is “Tomorrow Never Knows” turned up to 14, Segall’s voice a broken reflection of Lennon’s courtly wail, in fact the whole song a funhouse mirror of The Fab Four. If this is even slightly indicative of Twins I’m wholeheartedly signed on.

Twins comes out October 9th via Drag City.
